Learning to be Bulletproof

Sometimes in life, we have to learn to not let things bother us, and we have to learn to be bulletproof.  Bullets will fly in life and we will get hit; but, with the armor of God, we can make sure the bullets bounce off of us instead of sinking in and slowly killing us. 

Bullets may come in the form of hatred towards you, discouragement, harsh criticism, lies about you, and so much more.

Life gets hard, and people will try to shoot you down.  But be bulletproof, my friend.  Smile, and keep living!  Don’t let Satan get the victory over you, and prove to him and the people and circumstances that he uses as weapons that with God as your armor, you are bulletproof. 

Ephesians 6:10-18
10. Finally, my bretheren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness.
15. And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16. Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18. Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

There will always be war on this earth, and we must be brave soldiers in the fight.  Don’t be the coward who gives up and gets defeated.  When we are attacked, we must stand firm. (Eph. 6:13) We have God as our Commander, and we know how our story will end. 

I encourage you today to put on God’s armor and deflect any bullets that fly your way.
